Chapter 142 Criminal Investigation Department

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 The person in charge of on-site command is an old commissioner in his forties named Zhong Yugu.

After the Adventist sect attacked and rioted, he was transferred to Qidao City from other places. The nature was somewhat similar to when Claire was transferred.

Zhong Yugu's power in the Qidao City Security Bureau is not as great as Claire's, but he is the head of the newly reorganized Criminal Investigation Department.

The Criminal Investigation Department and the Field Service Department are independent of each other. Zhong Yugu has just arrived and has little impression of young people. He also doesn't know that Yu Zhesen had an outstanding performance in preventing Fu Zhaohai from escaping.

Therefore, facing a young man in his early twenties who was classified as a civilian employee of the Police Call Office, Zhong Yugu looked down upon him.

He very coldly rejected Yu Zhesen's request to see the drone footage.

"After the EOD is over, you will still have to be questioned." Zhong Yugu said seriously, "Now I order you to stay quietly, or you can get in the car and sit, and don't disturb me."

Yu Zhesen said bravely: "Sir Zhong, you may not know that we are investigating Nan, and the taxi parked on the bridge has serious suspicions."

"I'm here to deal with the explosion case. Let's put your matters aside for now." Zhong Yugu stared at the EOD team on the bridge, not even wanting to look at Yu Zhesen.

"If I say that my father is Director An Zhitian, would you agree to let me borrow the drone operating console?"

Zhong Yugu finally turned around again and looked at Yu Zhesen with a little surprise in his eyes.

After looking at each other for two seconds, Zhong Yugu made a concession and told the subordinate who was controlling the drone: "Lend him the drone."

"Thank you."

Yu Zhesen adopted the method he least liked, but it seemed that there was no other way to make Zhong Yugu take himself a little more seriously.

The drone operator looks like a handheld game console, with joystick buttons and a display screen. At this time, the screen shows the damage to the bridge after the explosion.

The taxi was very close to the explosion point, so it was expected to be affected to a certain extent. Most of the front and rear window glass were shattered, but the overall frame structure of the car was intact.

Yu Zhesen asked the security bureau personnel on the side: "Can you fly lower?"

After getting permission, he lowered the flying height of the drone to better observe the situation inside the car.

The high-definition night vision camera captured the situation in the cab by the front window. The picture made Yu Zhesen's expression condensed - there was no one in the car and the driver was missing.

This scene is a bit familiar, as it is the same as Yu Qingxue’s superimposed dream, where they woke up in an unmanned self-driving taxi.

"Do you have any video of your shooting?"

"Yes." The security bureau personnel on the side took out a tablet computer, "Do you want to review the previous video footage?"

"The driver of this car is missing." Yu Zhesen said, "When we got off the car, he was still unconscious in the driver's seat."

While the man was helping to retrieve the video, Yu Zhesen said to Chu Yuexi: "Please help me ask Yi Guang to check this taxi and ask for the owner and operation information."

"Okay." Chu Yuexi immediately began to implement his request.

Zhong Yugu glanced over slightly, paused for a moment on Yu Zhesen and then turned back to the front.

Yu Zhesen was engrossed in the drone footage and did not notice this small movement that symbolized Zhong Yugu's slight change in his opinion.

"It's strange, there are no signs of people leaving..."

After watching the drone video, Yu Zhesen looked unhappy.

The fire and smoke generated by the explosion briefly blocked the shooting, but the smoke was quickly blown away by the sea breeze on the bridge, and the drone also adjusted its angle to take surround shots. During this period, the driver had a gap of more than ten seconds.

Leave the vehicle and disappear?

He still remembered that the driver was in a coma when he went to the cab to turn off the engine. Now it seems that it was probably a deliberate act.

"There was a total of fourteen seconds of shooting, and the person disappeared. Could it be a person with super powers?" The security bureau commissioner on the side made a guess.

Yu Zhesen looked at Chu Yuexi: "Intern, have you found the car owner's information?"

"I'm just about to report to you! The taxi is affiliated to Xunxing Passenger Taxi Company in Qidao City. There are two registered drivers, one for day shift and one for night shift."

Chu Yuexi showed him the night shift driver's information: Zhang Cunyong, 39 years old, a native of Qidao City, has been unemployed for a long time. He joined Xunxing Passenger Taxi Company in Qidao City four days ago as a night shift driver and is incompetent.

"Not married, living in a single apartment in the old city, life seems to be relatively poor." Yu Zhesen said. "Please ask Commander Claire to send someone to come and have a look."

"This kind of person is likely to have anti-social tendencies." The security bureau commissioner who was holding the drone controller returned by Yu Zhesen commented.

Yu Zhesen said disapprovingly: "There is no need to rush to label people as suspects. Nightmare can affect the victim's spirit through dreams, so it is not ruled out that Zhang Cunyong is being used."

"There is no need to ask Claire Hathaway for instructions. I will send a group of people over here directly. Where is the address?" Zhong Yugu, who had been listening to their progress, suddenly expressed his intention to take over the investigation of taxi driver Zhang Cunyong.

Yu Zhesen said a little surprised: "It seems that the pursuit of supernatural criminals is not the task of the Criminal Investigation Department, right?"

"But the taxi appeared so close to the explosion site and the driver disappeared. Can't I list him as a suspect in the bridge bombing?" Zhong Yugu asked.

"Of course it's best if you're willing to take action." Yu Zhesen smiled.

The EOD team has advanced to the site of the explosion, and intelligent robots were lowered from the fracture and both sides of the bridge deck to inspect the bridge piers.T

News came from the intercom: "The explosive residue has been recovered, and preliminary analysis is CL-20 explosive."

"Continue to inspect the bridge body to eliminate the possibility of a secondary explosion." Zhong Yugu ordered.

Then he turned to Yu Zhesen and said: "Until the crisis is completely eliminated, the bridge will remain blocked. You need to follow me back to the Security Bureau for questioning."

"No problem, will your car pick us up?" Yu Zhesen asked.

Zhong Yugu made a please gesture to a black police car in the distance.

"It takes about 30 minutes to drive back to the Security Bureau from here. If it is convenient, we hope to complete the inquiry in the car." Yu Zhesen made a new request.

Zhong Yugu's face turned pale: "What? Is your time precious?"

"Not really, but I think 30 minutes is enough for us to explain things clearly." Yu Zhesen said and glanced at Chu Yuexi, "Or let me send her back and then report to you. You will never do anything to us.

Separate questioning and then a confession and confrontation?"

"I want to remind you that you are also on my suspect list." Zhong Yugu threatened.

"To tell you the truth, I am under investigation by the Xingzhou City Supernatural Power Investigation Division. If you think I will blow up the bridge under the nose of the special investigator..." Yu Zhesen smiled after saying this.

"Then explain it carefully," Zhong Yugu waved his hand, "Get in the car!"
